Lin Ruoshi followed behind Ye Xuan stiffly. She lowered her head and did not say anything. No one knew what she was thinking.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan did not explain anything. He pulled Lin Ruoshi along the road.

“Ye Xuan? Who are you? Are you really just a security guard of my company? Why do even the bosses of the three big pharmaceutical companies have to follow your orders?”

Lin Ruoshi followed behind Ye Xuan mechanically. She could not figure it out, no matter how hard she thought. Although the crisis of the family had indeed been resolved, there was a bigger mystery in front of her.

Ye Xuan saw Lin Ruoshi’s puzzled expression and was momentarily stunned. Then he shook his head and said, “President Lin, believe me. I will definitely tell you all about my identity when the time is right. You will know in the future.”

Lin Ruoshi smiled in relief and did not continue to ask. No matter Ye Xuan’s identity, it did not have much to do with her. Ye Xuan was just a shield for her. There would not be any substantial development between them.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruoshi’s heart ached slightly. She did not know why.

“Ye Xuan, I plan to resign. I don’t wish to be the president anymore.” Lin Ruoshi suddenly said.

“What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly think of resigning?”

Ye Xuan was stunned. He could see that Lin Ruoshi was not in a good mood. He asked anxiously in his heart. One had to know that the most taboo thing for pregnant women was emotional fluctuations. It was not good for the fetus.

“After all that has happened, I suddenly realized that to the family. I’m just a tool. Grandpa’s attitude makes me too sad. I don’t want to have too much involvement with the Lin family in the future.” Lin Ruoshi said in a low voice.

“If that’s the case, then resign. The most important thing for you now is to take care of your body. You have me to look after you.” Ye Xuan nodded. 

He really hoped that Lin Ruoshi would take care of her body at home. As the Lin Medical Group president, she did not have to exert herself physically. However, it was not good for her body to work hard every day, especially now that she was pregnant.

Lin Ruoshi nodded and then fell silent.

Ye Xuan sent Lin Ruoshi home. Just as he stepped into the house, Lin Ruoshi’s phone rang.

Lin Ruoshi frowned. “Who’s calling?”

Holding the phone in her hand, it turned out to be an old classmate that she had not contacted for a long time. After answering the phone and chatting for a while, she hung up with a gloomy expression.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan immediately asked curiously, “What’s wrong? You look listless.”

“It’s my former classmate. He asked me to attend a class reunion, but I refused.”

Lin Ruoshi covered her face as she spoke and lowered her head deeply. She used to be quite famous in school due to her beauty. Every class reunion, she would be the center of attention.

Lin Ruoshi did not put on any airs. Every time she was notified, she would choose to participate. Still, this time, she refused because her face had already been disfigured, and her previous appearance was no longer present. She did not dare to face her former classmates with this face.

“Why do you refuse? You attend every year and should do the same this time.” Ye Xuan smiled and gently stroked Lin Ruoshi’s bandaged face.

“But…”

Lin Ruoshi’s face was gloomy. She covered her face and lowered her head. The meaning behind it was self-evident.

“President Lin, don’t you believe me?”

Ye Xuan held Lin Ruoshi’s shoulders with both hands and gently raised her head. He stared into her beautiful eyes and said seriously.

“I do believe.”

Lin Ruoshi looked at the handsome face before her and said out of the blue. 

As soon as she finished her words, her face instantly turned red.

Ye Xuan nodded. He took Lin Ruoshi’s hand and walked to the mirror in the bedroom, letting her look at herself in the mirror.

He gently removed the bandages on her face layer by layer.

It turned out that the face staring back at Lin Ruoshi was flawless. There was not even a single trace of a scar left. Even her skin became more tender as if he had just been reborn.

“Alright,” Ye Xuan said.

Lin Ruoshi opened her trembling eyes and looked at her perfect self in the mirror. She was stunned.

A few seconds passed.

“Ah!”

A scream broke the silence in the room.

“Ah!”Lin Ruoshi cried out in excitement. Then she turned around and hung firmly on Ye Xuan’s body.

Ye Xuan took advantage of the situation, hugged the delicate body in his arms, and was afraid something would go wrong.

This was a woman that he needed to protect for his whole life. He could not let anything happen to her. Seeing Lin Ruoshi smile, he was also pleased.

“Ye Xuan, I’m so happy. Thank you, thank you so much.”

Lin Ruoshi said excitedly. Only then did she realize that she wasn’t supposed to be hugging Ye Xuan. She immediately got off of Ye Xuan with a red face.

Looking at the beautiful and shy woman before him, Ye Xuan felt like a cat’s paw was itching in his heart. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

“Ye Xuan, I’m sorry. I was too excited just now.”

Lin Ruoshi lowered her head and said shyly. At this time, she no longer had the intense feeling of a president. She felt more like a timid bird.

Ye Xuan smiled indifferently. “What’s there to be sorry about? You’re the mother of our child. You can do whatever you want.”

Lin Ruoshi rolled her eyes at Ye Xuan. Then she took out her phone from her pocket and dialed.

“I have time to attend the class reunion now. When will it start?

“Three o’clock in the afternoon, the usual place?

“Okay, I got it. I’ll be there on time.”

Lin Ruoshi hung up as she spoke. Then she looked up at Ye Xuan. “I’ll attend the class reunion in the afternoon. Will you go with me?”

“Of course, I’d be happy to.” Hearing this, Ye Xuan immediately nodded and agreed.

He was very willing to attend such an excellent opportunity to develop a relationship with Lin Ruoshi. Only a boyfriend can accompany Lin Ruoshi to the class reunion. This meant that Lin Ruoshi had already acknowledged their relationship and Ye Xuan’s presence in her life.

“Okay, then it’s settled. Today at 3 pm, you will attend as my boyfriend.”

After receiving Ye Xuan’s affirmation, Lin Ruoshi immediately made the decision. At this moment, the president’s imposing manner was unquestionable.

The reason why she changed her mind was entirely that the scar on her face had completely healed, which gave her confidence.

At 3 pm in the afternoon, Ye Xuan drove Lin Ruoshi to the reunion venue, Island Hotel.

This was a private club where people could eat, drink, and play. Those who could spend money here were basically all worth tens of millions.

Although Lin Ruoshi’s father was not favored, he was still an important family member. Therefore, Lin Ruoshi was sent to an elite school. Her classmates were all children with rich and famous parents..
